Corrine Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Mozilla sent Firefox Version 34.0.5 to the release channel. The update includes eight (8) security updates, three (3) of which are Critical, three (3) High and two (2) moderate. Default Search Engine Changes Mozilla is including major changes in default search engines in the release of version 34, reportedly "Promoting Choice and Innovation". Looking deeper, perhaps the real reason is the flat revenue from Google-Firefox search deal. Regardless of the reason behind the change, the default search engine in North America has been changed to Yahoo! According to the agreement, Yahoo! will support "do not track". Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, eBay, Amazon, Twitter and Wikipedia continue to be built-in as alternate search options. After updating, there was no change to Bing as my choice for search engine. For search engine changes in other countries, see New Search Strategy for Firefox: Promoting Choice & Innovation. Additional information about the update is available in my blog post here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrine Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 I think most everyone here knows that I'm tired of the rapid release program so of course I agree with Martin Brinkmann, Firefox 34 feels rushed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
